This allows for more minerality in the soil, which increases the complexity of the resulting wine (when yields are cut back).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"\"><img decoding=\"async\"

alt=\"Flysch cliff walk Zumaia 2015-04-21 (18) - Gazing and Grazing\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"\">Malvasia Bianca and Negra are perfect to grow in SoCal.&nbsp; Their skins are thicker than that of Sauv Blanc or Chadonnay, so the wines won\u2019t be as raisiny in flavor.&nbsp; They can handle the heat.&nbsp; In humid areas, it can sometimes have mildew.&nbsp; &nbsp; You can also find it in San Joaquin Valley, CA and in the plains of Texas.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"\">Malvasia Nera\/Malvasia Negra is a different grape.&nbsp; With regards to Pinot Nor, when the climate is warm, the grape mutates and one common mutation is Pinot Grigio\/Pinot Gris.&nbsp; I\u2019m uncertain if Malvasia Bianca came first or Malvasia Nera.&nbsp; Malvasia Bianca is far more common than Malvasia Negra.&nbsp; Whereas with Pinot Noir and Pinot Grigio\/Gris, it\u2019s the opposite.&nbsp; DNA proves that the two are identical.&nbsp; Therefore they could be either unidentical twins or a mutation.&nbsp; &nbsp; In some places the grape is called Black Malvasia.&nbsp; To add further confusion (remember DNA testing in grapes has only been around 25 years or so) Malvasia Nera di Brindisi and Malvasia Nera di Lecce are also genetically identical, but grown in different places resulting in different characteristics and flavor profiles.&nbsp; Malvasia Nera di Brindisi ripens two weeks earlier, with smaller bunches and more spicy flavor whereas Malvasia Nera di Lecce ripens later with larger bunches and is more of a work horse.&nbsp; There are quite a few of other Malvasias out there with different endings.&nbsp; Each has its own listing in the National Grape Registry. &nbsp; Most of these are found in warm coastal areas, west of the Apennines Mountains in Italy.&nbsp; All of which could do well in warm coastal areas of SoCal<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"\">Malvasia Nera is thinner skinned than Malvasia Bianca.&nbsp; The resulting wine is a lighter red, extraordinarily aromatic with notes of cherries, figs, plums and roasted hazelnuts.&nbsp; It can be found in Puglia Italy, which given similar climate in SoCal, will do well as an alternative to Grenache.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"\">In Crete, because Malvasia Nera tends to be high in sugar, the fermentation is halted at about 5% abv.&nbsp; It is then bottled with a secondary fermentation in the bottle.&nbsp; These age well with flavors of dark cocoa and pair well with wedding cake.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"\">Grapes like Malvasia are a chameleon because you really don\u2019t know what you\u2019re going to get unless you know the style produced in the town where it is grown.&nbsp; Different places produce both Malvasia Bianca and Nera differently.&nbsp; It is typically dry, unless indicated.&nbsp; You can tell by the % abv.&nbsp; The bottle shape will also give it away if it is effervescent.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full
